I don't think 71 shifted (well thier feet shifted back and forth) and they did pretty good this year Neither did 47, 67, 61 and many others. If you have the weight and your design allows for it AND you need to be fast and powerful (which I doubt we will see pushing like last year again as I think FIRST will move back to less contact) then shifters may be a good idea. I don't think it is a requirement for a robot.
